Canopy cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Rew Street
A greasy canopy tells an inspector a lot before they’ve opened anything. Under the surface, the plenum behind the filters is typically in a worse state. We clean both, so the canopy is clean where it shows and where it doesn’t. If you are dealing with a canopy that no longer draws the smoke away and condensation running down the canopy, we can help.
For a kitchen in or near Rew Street, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Grease, kitchens and Rew Street
Rew Street is within about 2 miles of the coast. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. Food Standards Agency records list about 7 restaurants, cafés and works canteens across Rew Street and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Any of those kitchens with a canopy has a hood that needs cleaning inside and out. Rew Street is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Northwood Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Osborne House is about 2.8 miles east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like St Mary's Hospital about 2.8 miles south-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
Rew Street is about 1 mile south-west of Cowes, in the Isle of Wight. Every kind of commercial site in Rew Street, canopy cleaning is something we can help with. Visits can be booked for evenings, overnight or weekends so trading is not interrupted. Across the Isle of Wight, we cover 125 places, and Rew Street is one of them. There’s also a page for Southampton, roughly 12 miles from Rew Street.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Rew Street
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What we do, step by step
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. In a small place like Rew Street, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- Diagnosis first: we look behind the filters as well as at the hood.
- Equipment is turned off and cooled, and the area under the canopy is protected.
- Thick grease is scraped away before the canopy is degreased.
- We finish the plenum, troughs and canopy and check them over.
- You get photos of the result and a recommended date for the next clean.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Move anything stored near the system

Advice
Why act early in Rew Street
Drips from a dirty canopy land on the cooking line. It’s a food hygiene concern as much as a fire concern, and EHOs look at the cleanliness of the premises and equipment. If the system at a site near Rew Street fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.

How the job changes from site to site
Plenums and filter housings
The plenum is the space behind the filters where air gathers before entering the duct. Grease that slips past the filters settles there, so it’s scraped and degreased on every canopy clean.
Grease troughs and gutters
Some troughs drain to a cup or drawer, we empty and clean that as well, and we’ll show staff where it is.
What a clean will not put right
Canopy cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It doesn’t solve:
- A canopy too small for the cooking under it (that’s a design question)
- A light fitting that doesn’t work
- Grease in the duct runs and risers behind the canopy
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What the work covers
- Canopy light fittings
- Grease gutters
- Baffle filters
- Island canopies
- Plenum chambers
- Wall canopies
Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Check all filters are fitted before service
- Keep the fan on through service
- Make sure filters sit tight in the housing
- Empty the grease troughs before they fill
A full system clean comes with a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. Where only the canopy is done, the report says so clearly.
The best thing a kitchen can do for its canopy is keep the filters clean. Keep them on a regular cleaning or exchange cycle, and make sure they’re all in place before cooking. The plenum behind them stays cleaner.
What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Questions from Rew Street
Do you cover smaller places like Rew Street?
Yes. Rew Street is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Does coastal air change anything about canopy cleaning in Rew Street?
It can. Being within about 2 miles of the sea means more corrosion on metalwork in Rew Street than inland. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
How much does canopy cleaning cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
What happens to the filters during the clean?
We take them out, clean them and put them back. We also offer a filter exchange service for between cleans.
How much of the canopy do you clean?
Inside and out, including the seams, troughs and gutters. With the filters out, the plenum and housing are cleaned as well.
Which canopies and hoods do you clean?
Canopies in pubs, restaurants, hotels, schools, care homes, offices and other kitchens. The routine stays the same whatever the kitchen, with the equipment off and cool.
